A College Internship at The Jim Henson Company


Thank you for your interest in an internship with The Jim Henson Company. We are looking for enthusiastic individuals who are willing to dedicate themselves to enhancing our company environment. We seek students who are organized, mature, and have a great sense of humor. You must have a positive attitude, desire to learn, and willingness to be flexible. This is a fun, relaxed place to work with a lot of creative energy and a good mix of hard work. You will see how our company functions from behind the scenes, and play a large role in contributing to our goals.


Please do not feel that you need to be a puppeteer, a puppet maker, or an arts and crafts buff to be considered for an internship. In fact, our internships are primarily in an office atmosphere located in our Los Angeles or New York offices. However, we welcome applicants with a special interest in the Company and its projects.


Students must provide proof of college credit for the internship, and assume responsibility for transportation, living arrangements, etc.


Please note:
* We do NOT teach puppeteering, puppet making, mold making, sculpting, animatronic construction or foam latex construction.


Feel free to be creative with your application (although this is not necessary), but please maintain professionalism.
